In MARRIED TO EL CHAPO, Emma Coronel Aispuro, the wife of Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán, breaks her silence in an unprecedented and exclusive interview. She reveals the story of falling in love with the Sinaloa Cartel kingpin, a man 32 years her senior and a fugitive who famously escaped a maximum-security prison by riding a motorcycle through a mile-long underground tunnel. Emma's story exposes the impossible choices she made to protect her family and survive in a world ruled by power, violence, and loyalty. But as she confronts her life beside a criminal mastermind, haunting questions remain: will she be able to face the ugliest truths of her husband’s actions, and how does she grapple with her own accountability?
